My cuticles are getting really long and all nail polish I put on chips at the cuticle really quickly. I need a simple and cheap way to remove the excess without cutting them as when I tried it before it left them feeling really sore afterwards. Any tips/ideas/recommendations??...

Push them back with a cuticle tool xo.

When I have long cuticles and don't have a tool handy, I just find something or use another nail to just push it down:-)

Soak your hands in warm water and then use a soft but flat tool to push them back. when your hands dry out the cuticles will release the soaked up water and shrink. pushing them back without soaking leaves them looking rather beat up.
